2027 Audi e-tron GT2027 Ferrari Luce

Safety

The Luce has a standard front seat center airbag, which deploys between the driver and front passenger, protecting them from injuries caused by striking each other in serious side impacts. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer front seat center airbags.

The Luce’s driver alert monitor detects an inattentive driver then sounds a warning and suggests a break. According to the NHTSA, drivers who fall asleep cause about 100,000 crashes and 1500 deaths a year. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer a driver alert monitor.

Both the Luce and the e-tron GT have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front and rear side-impact airbags, driver and front passenger knee airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, all-wheel drive, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, post-collision automatic braking systems, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, around view monitors and rear cross-path warning.

Warranty

The Luce comes with a full 3-year/unlimited-mile basic warranty, which covers the entire truck and includes free 24-hour roadside assistance. The e-tron GT’s 50,000-mile basic warranty expires sooner.

Ferrari pays for scheduled maintenance on the Luce for 4 years and unlimited miles longer than Audi pays for maintenance for the e-tron GT (7/unlimited vs. 3/30,000).

Engine

The Luce’s electric motors produces 123 more horsepower (1035 vs. 912) than the e-tron GT’s electric motors.

Fuel Economy and Range

The Luce can travel longer on a full charge than the RS e-tron GT performance (280 miles vs. 278 miles).

Tires and Wheels

For better traction and acceleration, the Luce has larger rear tires than the e-tron GT (315/30R24 vs. 305/30R21).

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the Luce has standard 23-inch front and 24-inch rear wheels. Only 21-inch wheels are available on the e-tron GT.

Changing a flat tire near traffic can be dangerous and inconvenient. The run-flat tires optional on the Luce can be driven up to 50 miles without any air pressure, allowing you to drive to a service station for a repair. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer run-flat tires.

Suspension and Handling

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Luce’s wheelbase is 2.4 inches longer than on the e-tron GT (116.6 inches vs. 114.2 inches).

For better maneuverability, the Luce’s turning circle is 1.3 feet tighter than the e-tron GT’s (36.8 feet vs. 38.1 feet).

Chassis

The front grille of the Luce uses electronically controlled shutters to close off airflow and reduce drag when less engine cooling is needed. This helps improve highway fuel economy. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer active grille shutters.

The Luce uses computer-generated active noise cancellation to help remove annoying noise and vibration from the passenger compartment, especially at low frequencies. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer active noise cancellation.

Passenger Space

For enhanced passenger comfort on long trips the Luce’s rear seats recline. The e-tron GT’s rear seats don’t recline.

Cargo Capacity

Pressing a button automatically lowers or raises the Luce’s rear seats, to make changing between cargo and passengers easier. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer automatic folding seats.

Ergonomics

Unlike the driver-only memory system in the e-tron GT, the Luce has standard driver and passenger memory, so that when drivers switch, the memory setting adjusts the driver’s seat, steering wheel position, outside mirror angle, climate settings and radio stations and the front passenger seat also adjusts to the new passenger’s preset preferences.

The Luce’s power window, power lock, power mirror and cruise control switches are lit from behind, making them plainly visible and easier to operate at night. The e-tron GT’s cruise control switches are unlit, making them difficult to find at night and operate safely.

Heated windshield washer fluid is standard on the Luce to defrost the washer nozzles and quickly clear ice and frost from the windshield without scraping. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer heated windshield washer fluid.

The Luce has standard front air conditioned seats and offers them optionally in the rear. This keeps the passengers comfortable and takes the sting out of hot seats in summer. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer air-conditioned seats in the rear.

Both the Luce and the e-tron GT offer available massaging front seats. The Luce also offers optional massaging rear seats in order to maximize comfort and eliminate fatigue on long trips. Massaging rear seats aren’t available in the e-tron GT.

The Luce has a 115-volt a/c outlet in the cargo area, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The e-tron GT doesn’t offer a house-current electrical outlet.
